Today, I wanna talk about this whole “Michigan vs. Everybody” thing. I got into this mess a while back, and boy, was it a ride. So, I started off just hearing the phrase, you know, “Michigan vs. Everybody.” It sounded kinda cool, kinda tough, like a battle cry or something. I didn’t know much about it, but it got stuck in my head.
Then, I saw this sweatshirt, all caps, screaming “Michigan vs. Everybody.” This guy, Blake Corum, was wearing it. That’s when I really started digging. I found out it’s tied to the University of Michigan’s football team, the Wolverines. Apparently, they were having a killer season, aiming for the national championship.
I went deeper, reading up on it. There’s this book, “Michigan Vs. Everybody: Inside the Wolverines’ 2023 National Championship Season.” Sounds intense, right? It’s all about their journey, the ups and downs, the whole shebang. I haven’t read the whole thing yet, but what I skimmed through was pretty gripping. It’s like, they really embodied that “us against the world” mentality.

- I also stumbled upon this other thing, “Detroit Vs. Everybody.”
- Seems like it started as a way to boost Detroit’s image but turned into a marketing thing.
- There’s even some drama about who “owns” the phrase, Michigan or Detroit.
- Honestly, it’s a bit of a headache.
- People are saying one side stole it from the other, and there’s a whole debate about it.
Anyway, I decided I wanted a piece of this action. So, I went to The M Den, which is like the official shop for Michigan stuff. I browsed around, looking for something that screamed “Michigan vs. Everybody.” And there it was – the perfect hoodie. I grabbed it, tried it on, and it felt right. It’s not just a piece of clothing; it’s like a statement, you know?
So now, I’m here, wearing this hoodie, feeling like a part of something bigger. It’s not just about sports; it’s about that feeling of standing up for something, even when it feels like everyone’s against you. “Michigan vs. Everybody” – it’s more than just words; it’s an attitude, a mindset. And I’m all in.
And that was the story of how I got involved in the whole “Michigan vs. Everybody” movement. It’s been a wild ride, from just hearing the phrase to actually feeling like I’m a part of it. It’s more than a slogan for me now. It is an experience.
